Hey Sister, Soul Sister.

To My Little Sister

Dear little sis,

I know we are apart the majority of the year, but somehow I think that makes us closer. I think we've both realized how much we truly love each other when we are forced to spend time away. I find myself sitting in my dorm room sometimes wishing I was back home on the couch watching tv with you or driving around town. It's the little things like that which make you appreciate what you have.

Thank you for sticking with me through everything, even through the darkest of times. We've been through a lot of crap together but we somehow come out stronger every time. Even when you drive me absolutely nuts and I want to slap you, there isn't a day that will go by where I won't defend you. No one messes with my little sister. I would literally take a bullet for you if I had to.

Thank you for managing to keep yourself together even when you thought you couldn't anymore. You've handled yourself with such grace and dignity through all of the horrendous things that have been thrown at you. I admire you for that, you can't hold a grudge to save your life. You forgive people despite the pain they've caused you and that's the ultimate strength. I used to worry about you but I know I don't have to. You always manage to come out okay on the other side of it.

Thank you for laughing with me when life gets tough. We both get uncomfortable when things get serious and we always find a way to find humor out of an unfortunate situation. You make me laugh all the time and I couldn't appreciate it more. It's nice to share the same sense of humor together. Thank you for laughing at my jokes, even when they are pretty bad.

Most of all, thank you for being my little sister, my ride or die, and my best friend. We've been through it all together but I wouldn't have wanted to go through it with anybody else. It's just you and me now and it sucks but we make the most of it. We both find a way to keep each other going despite the huge loss we've have suffered in our life. You're my sister until kingdom come. I love you!


- Your big sis

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
